Sweet Fudge Ice Cream (mysore Pak Ice Cream)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup besan (gram flour)
  • 1 cup ghee (clarified butter)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, cashews, pistachios)

Instructions

  1. In a heavy-bottomed pan, roast the besan in ghee over low heat until it turns golden brown and aromatic.
  2. In a separate pan, combine the sugar and water to make a sugar syrup. Cook until it reaches a one-string consistency.
  3. Pour the sugar syrup into the roasted besan and ghee mixture. Stir continuously to avoid lumps and cook until the mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan. This is the Mysore Pak base.
  4. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gradually fold in the sweetened condensed milk and cardamom powder.
  5. Crumble the Mysore Pak base and gently fold it into the ice cream mixture along with the chopped nuts.
  6. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  7. Scoop the sweet fudge ice cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy the delightful flavors of Mysore Pak in a cool and creamy form!
